McIntosh Brings Iconic Sound to Veuve Clicquot’s Club Solaire in Venice Beach
A custom McIntosh sound system set the stage for DJ performances by Este Haim and Mei Kwok at Veuve Clicquot’s celebration of music, creativity, and culture.
On October 1, 2026, McIntosh brought its legendary sound to the shores of Venice Beach for the debut of Veuve Clicquot’s Club Solaire, an immersive celebration of music, art, food, and creativity inspired by the Champagne House’s signature solaire spirit.
Set against the backdrop of the Pacific Ocean, the exclusive opening celebration welcomed an influential crowd of artists, tastemakers, and creatives, including Charlize Theron, Grace Van Patten, Christina Hendricks, and more, for an evening where extraordinary sound was at the center of the experience.
At the heart of the celebration was a custom McIntosh sound system, featuring two flagship XRT2.1K Floor Standing Loudspeakers, MC2.1KW Monoblock Power Amplifiers, an MC462 Quad Balanced Power Amplifier, and a C2800 Vacuum Tube Preamplifier. The system brought McIntosh’s legendary power, clarity, and scale to the DJ booth, where five-time GRAMMY-nominated musician Este Haim and acclaimed DJ Mei Kwok took to the decks, delivering sets that carried guests from golden hour into the night.
Beyond the DJ booth, McIntosh was also featured alongside fellow Bose Luxury brand Sonus faber in Club Solaire’s dedicated listening room, inviting guests to discover another dimension of exceptional sound within the thoughtfully curated space.
For more than 75 years, McIntosh has been part of the moments and movements that define music and culture. From powering legendary live performances to finding its place in contemporary creative spaces, the brand continues to connect artists and audiences through extraordinary sound.
At Club Solaire, that legacy found a new expression, bringing together iconic audio, French luxury, and the creative energy of Venice Beach for an unforgettable celebration.
Where music meets culture, McIntosh is there.
